|
|
Hi Everyone,
As this is my first litter of kittens, can anyone tell me if it is possible to have a litter of all female kittens? I have always adopted adult cats, and their was no mistaking their sex! My three kittens are 8 weeks old now and I checked a few sites for pictures of a male/kitten to compare to my kittens. I just thought nature would mix up male and female, but I am really thinking I have 3 females. I had them to the vet when they were first born, but the vet didn't want to tell me their sex without being mistaken. The kittens go again in about a week and a half, I'll find out for sure by then. But I thought for sure at this age, I would be able to tell a male from a female. Has anyone ever had a litter of just one sex of kittens. Just curious. Thanks |

| A sweet calico kitty we used to have had four kittens and there were all male. I'm sure it can happen. |

| With such a small litter (3 kittens), I'm sure it's possible. |

| Yes, it's possible, my neighbor kitty at my last apartment gave birth on my porch, to a litter of four girls in september. I didn't end up keeping them, but my boyfriend and I took them to the vet for a health check and said they were all definately girls. |
